It appeared after like 3h of constant gaming, so I thought it was some problem with the memorystick and decided to run memtest a full night, and when I did so I got no errors at all (~9h walltime) so I'm not sure what is causing these problems. Can it be heat from the CPU that affects the memorysticks?
I'm running with OPPainters settings ( http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...566#post704566 ) @ 3.3V. Any suggestions?
Haven't done any ocing, except for my gfxcard running 410/510

That's a wierd message you were getting. It might be your video memory meaning that your video card overclocking is the proiblem. Try your video card at default speeds. Let me know how that works.
Let me know and I will try and help.
My CPU voltage is 1,45V, and the other ones are at stock values, so I don't think that's the problem here. The temps are, according to speedfan, max 34c after playing for like ~3h. Same thing after like 1h of OCCT.Quote:

OCZ 3200 Platinum Ltd Ed. Here (BH6), 2X512 , 1.5,2,2,5, 260 @ 3.6v, (posted proof elsewhere already)Quote:

Sorry guys, can the DFI nF4 SLI use 2x6800 GT/Ultra Leadtek? :confused:
If it can't maybe that will be see as a little bug, no? :rolleyes:
Thnx all for replies & sorry for this "OT" ;) .

Hi guys, i´m starting to be a "little anoyed" with my Ultra-D mobo. I can´t get over 260HTT. My CPU is a little nice piece of hw, it goes @ 2.6GHz 1.36V real! VCore, originally Winnie 3200+. So I can expect nice OC.
But even if I set multipliar to 7 or 8 to know limits of my RAMsticks, I can´t get over 260 as i said.
Even if the divider is on! :stick:
Tried Mushkin LVLII V2 and now Kingston HyperX ULL both 1GB dual pack kits based as you know on TCCD chips. Both kits performed really good on 260 timings CL2.5-2-3-7 1T 2.8V Bank Interleave Enabled. So there is a huge reserve for higher clocks. I expect next week OCZ Platinum Rev.2 with same chips but on BrainPowerPCB, which OCs better.
Rising Voltage doesn´t solve anything.
Anyone occured same thing?
:rolleyes: :stick:Quote:

Is it enough ?? Cause I dont wanna change my psu again
How about keep it and still get some TCCD? :stick:Quote:

Maybe, :banana::banana::banana:in, you are going right, without the black-plastic chasis and a 120x120 fan on the top card will be the best choice ;) , but is it as good as for OC cards? :confused:

I'm getting anonyed with random freezes.......wtf is going on ? I can't do multitasking at all :(
I had problems similar to this, despite hours and hours of prime stability and game stability and superpi, it had to do with all the different ram settings in the bios causing it to freeze randomly, so once i changed them it stopped doing thisQuote:

With that set up, and AS5, the top card idles 47C, load 78C. Max stable O/C 428/1158. I'll slap a waterblock on soon!Quote:

And now after throwing the jumper to draw off the 5v rail, I get the volts but my BH-5 craps out if I throw more than 3.3v at it! Even with all settings the same (334HTT 3:4 divider = 250.5) I go from stable to memtest throwing out errors if I make no other change than going from 3.3v to 3.4v. :brick: This memory on the LPUT board had no problem with 3.5v. I know others have reported the same thing with their BH-5, but I don't see solution in this thread. I know OPPainter has his VX flying and I have the poor man's version (Twinmos SP) on the way, but it bothers me that my Mushkin Promo 2-2-2 may have to sit. I'm using the 2/9 bios BTW.Quote:

But if performance is equal I'll go with the TCCD since I can give them .3v less voltage and deal with a little less heat.
I'm getting very disapointed with DFI NF4 overall
System isn't smooth as used to have in NF2 :(
Damn it ...threw 500$ out for nothing :(
Those with BH5 should have flashed to BIOS 218 a long time ago. Start with ALL DRAM BIOS settings at Auto...ALL of them. Do NOT use Optimised Defaults right off the bat with BH5.
TCCD runs best at 2.5 4-3-7 on the DFI. Try it.
Memory requires active cooling over 2.9v (the whole area, not just the modules).
Only 24 pin PSUs need apply here.
Has everyone tried all this already. I finished my 5th DFI NF4 build last weekend. I ordered up parts for #6 today. This DFI board is not for the faint of heart, or for those that do not want to put the time into the BIOS or refuse to have top notch supporting hardware. Of the 5 builds Ive assembled, I used 3 with Gskill LE and 2 with LA. All had top end 24 pin PSUs, used both supplemental mobo power connectors, and had active cooling over the memory area when running 2.9v and above. All on BETA BIOS 218. All BIOSes manually tweaked.
Hope this helps someone.
What sort of clocks were you getting with your Gskill?
LE does 290 to 318 depending on voltage. 2.9v takes me to 292. 3v to 308. 3.1v to 312. 3.2v to 318.Quote:

I always use the same settings 2.5-4-3-7.
One thing I noticed as far as Gskill TCCD modules:
2x512MB - put them in DIMM slots 1 and 3 (orange)
2x256MB - again, in DIMM slots 2 and 4 (yellow)
At least works for me...
Using e.g. yellow slots for 2x512MB @ DDR630 casues system to fail during POST.
But using those same slots with 2x256MB yields better ocability of forementioned sticks ;)
